If you looked at the TV listings of ESPN and ESPN2 Friday, you saw what I mean.
It's greed, pure greed, by the professional sports industry.
Here it is, mid- to late October, which is traditional football time, except for the World Series. So now there are also pre-Series baseball playoffs and, look, there's women's professional basketball on national television.
Well, it's all to satisfy the greed of sports moguls.
Basketball used to sort of wait for the end of the football season. Now its greedy owners can't even wait for the end of baseball.
As long as gullible fans have a buck in their pockets, the sports industry will be grabbing.
. Never mind what the calendar says. The calendar is stingy, old-fashioned.
Never mind that a fan's toes get frosty at the ballpark in October.. Or that he breaks into a sweat driving to see a basketball playoff in late spring..
That's pro sports nowadays. Omnipresent. Get used to it, sucker..
